Make a job for a man
A dull glow in the sky Midst a trail of
smoke and sparks fire-lighters clang through
the streets Perhaps you grab your hat and
dash madly to the scene Long before you
arrive-long before the hungry llames have
licked their way skyward — the trouble crew
of the electric company is on the job They
arrive unobserved — unheralded — close be-
hind the fire apparatus Broken twisted or
crossed electric wires may carry darkness
and trouble to every corner of your commun-
ity So poles near the fire are guarded and
wires are watched and repaired The result
of this close attention is uninterrupted ser-
vice The electric company knows no rest-
every day is now-this hour-this minute Fire
or flood-summer and winter we must “carry
on” We are proud
